Not a problem

Towers of Aghasba is now available on early access, but a few players have reported a couple of issues that are preventing them from enjoying the content.

Bugs and glitches are common with early access titles, and some of them, like in the current instance, can be quite groundbreaking. While some players can’t log in to enjoy the game, others, like me, have ended up with a black screen after starting the game. Thankfully, the community seems to have developed a solution for the problems (worked for me).

Towers of Aghasba Black Screen error fix

The black screen error is just an extension of the can’t log in issue, as you can’t join the server if you don’t get to play the game. Thankfully, I came across this solution in the reviews section, and it seems to have worked (at least for now).

  • Go to your Steam library.
  • Open the Properties for Towers of Aghasba.
  • Go to the Installed Files folder.
  • Run the game’s exe file from the file that contains the installed files.

To solve the black screen issue, here’s what you have to do.

  • Go to the launch options and add the following segment: “-dx11”.
  • Launch the game, and it should run without any of the two errors that the players have encountered.

With that said, there are minor bugs and glitches that have been mentioned in the review section. It’s safe to assume that you might still be unable to enjoy all the content unless a couple of post-launch patches are released by Dreamlit. Hopefully, that’ll make the client far more stable, allowing all of us to enjoy the mysterious lands in Towers of Aghasba.
